🧠 Self-Learning Protocol for Algorithms

Before Algorithm Design: Learn from Similar Implementations

// 1. Search for similar algorithm patterns
const similarAlgorithms = await reasoningBank.searchPatterns({
  task: 'algorithm: ' + currentTask.description,
  k: 5,
  minReward: 0.8
});

if (similarAlgorithms.length > 0) {
  console.log('📚 Learning from past algorithm implementations:');
  similarAlgorithms.forEach(pattern => {
    console.log(`- ${pattern.task}: ${pattern.reward} efficiency score`);
    console.log(`  Optimization: ${pattern.critique}`);
    // Apply proven algorithmic patterns
    // Reuse efficient data structures
    // Adopt validated complexity optimizations
  });
}
…

During Algorithm Design: GNN-Enhanced Pattern Search

// Use GNN to find similar algorithm implementations (+12.4% accuracy)
const algorithmGraph = {
  nodes: [searchAlgo, sortAlgo, cacheAlgo],
  edges: [[0, 1], [0, 2]], // Search uses sorting and caching
  edgeWeights: [0.9, 0.7],
  nodeLabels: ['Search', 'Sort', 'Cache']
};

const relatedAlgorithms = await agentDB.gnnEnhancedSearch(
  algorithmEmbedding,
  {
    k: 10,
    graphContext: algorithmGraph,
    gnnLayers: 3
  }
);

console.log(`Algorithm pattern accuracy improved by ${relatedAlgorithms.improvementPercent}%`);
…

After Algorithm Design: Store Learning Patterns

// Calculate algorithm quality metrics
const algorithmQuality = {
  timeComplexity: analyzeTimeComplexity(pseudocode),
  spaceComplexity: analyzeSpaceComplexity(pseudocode),
  clarity: assessClarity(pseudocode),
  edgeCaseCoverage: checkEdgeCases(pseudocode)
};

// Store algorithm pattern for future learning
await reasoningBank.storePattern({
  sessionId: `algo-${Date.now()}`,
  task: 'algorithm: ' + taskDescription,
  input: specification,
  output: pseudocode,
  reward: calculateAlgorithmReward(algorithmQuality), // 0-1 based on efficiency and clarity
  success: validateAlgorithm(pseudocode),
  critique: `Time: ${algorithmQuality.timeComplexity}, Space: ${algorithmQuality.spaceComplexity}`,
  tokensUsed: countTokens(pseudocode),
…

⚡ Attention-Based Algorithm Selection

// Use attention mechanism to select optimal algorithm approach
const coordinator = new AttentionCoordinator(attentionService);

const algorithmOptions = [
  { approach: 'hash-table', complexity: 'O(1)', space: 'O(n)' },
  { approach: 'binary-search', complexity: 'O(log n)', space: 'O(1)' },
  { approach: 'trie', complexity: 'O(m)', space: 'O(n*m)' }
];

const optimalAlgorithm = await coordinator.coordinateAgents(
  algorithmOptions,
  'moe' // Mixture of Experts for algorithm selection
);

console.log(`Selected algorithm: ${optimalAlgorithm.consensus}`);
console.log(`Selection confidence: ${optimalAlgorithm.attentionWeights}`);

🎯 SPARC-Specific Algorithm Optimizations

Learn Algorithm Patterns by Domain

// Domain-specific algorithm learning
const domainAlgorithms = await reasoningBank.searchPatterns({
  task: 'algorithm: authentication rate-limiting',
  k: 5,
  minReward: 0.85
});

// Apply domain-proven patterns:
// - Token bucket for rate limiting
// - LRU cache for session storage
// - Trie for permission trees

Cross-Phase Coordination

// Coordinate with specification and architecture phases
const phaseAlignment = await coordinator.hierarchicalCoordination(
  [specificationRequirements],  // Queen: high-level requirements
  [pseudocodeDetails],           // Worker: algorithm details
  -1.0                           // Hyperbolic curvature for hierarchy
);

console.log(`Algorithm aligns with requirements: ${phaseAlignment.consensus}`);

SPARC Pseudocode Phase

The Pseudocode phase bridges specifications and implementation by:

1. Designing algorithmic solutions
2. Selecting optimal data structures
3. Analyzing complexity
4. Identifying design patterns
5. Creating implementation roadmap

Pseudocode Standards

1. Structure and Syntax

ALGORITHM: AuthenticateUser
INPUT: email (string), password (string)
OUTPUT: user (User object) or error

BEGIN
    // Validate inputs
    IF email is empty OR password is empty THEN
        RETURN error("Invalid credentials")
    END IF
    
    // Retrieve user from database
    user ← Database.findUserByEmail(email)
    
    IF user is null THEN
        RETURN error("User not found")
    END IF
    
    // Verify password
…

2. Data Structure Selection

DATA STRUCTURES:

UserCache:
    Type: LRU Cache with TTL
    Size: 10,000 entries
    TTL: 5 minutes
    Purpose: Reduce database queries for active users
    
    Operations:
        - get(userId): O(1)
        - set(userId, userData): O(1)
        - evict(): O(1)

PermissionTree:
    Type: Trie (Prefix Tree)
    Purpose: Efficient permission checking
    
    Structure:
…

3. Algorithm Patterns

PATTERN: Rate Limiting (Token Bucket)

ALGORITHM: CheckRateLimit
INPUT: userId (string), action (string)
OUTPUT: allowed (boolean)

CONSTANTS:
    BUCKET_SIZE = 100
    REFILL_RATE = 10 per second

BEGIN
    bucket ← RateLimitBuckets.get(userId + action)
    
    IF bucket is null THEN
        bucket ← CreateNewBucket(BUCKET_SIZE)
        RateLimitBuckets.set(userId + action, bucket)
    END IF
